Once your child hits one, there are a lot of milestones they will hit. This will be the year of a lot of firsts! They’ll start walking, talking, and exploring on their own. This is the year that they’ll be unstoppable, wanting to discover everything, wanting to do everything on their own. This is a great year to build your child’s focus, their fine and gross motor skills, their awareness of the world about them. It is also the year when your child learns to be independent and develops routines that will lay the foundation for the rest of their lives.
This is the reason that children love toys and tools that allow them to feel capable, and enough and maybe, even a little bit like a grown up. Toys and tools with a scope for pretend play, toys and tools that make everyday more approachable and easier to understand for them.
